ChuChu TV Classics is an Indian edutainment YouTube channel. ChuChu TV is the 43rd most subscribed YouTube channel in the world, with over 20 million subscribers.[1] It is the fifth most subscribed YouTube channel in India, and has over 15.8 billion video views. ChuChu TV consists of various YouTube channels for children that are dedicated towards creating 2D and 3D animation videos of traditional nursery rhymes with an incorporation of peppy music and a modern day aesthetic in them. The channels include ChuChu TV Nursery Rhymes & Kids Songs, ChuChu TV Surprise Egg Toys, ChuChu TV FunZone and ChuChu TV StoryTime.

On 14 November 2014, ChuChu TV Nursery Rhymes released “Johny Johny Yes Papa and Many More Videos”, which has received over 1.5 billion views as of September 2018, making it the third most viewed YouTube non-music video of all time.

ChuChu TV’s founder, CEO and creative director — Vinoth Chandar — posted the channel’s first video on YouTube, basing the main character ChuChu on his three-year-old daughter. The first video, titled “Chubby Cheeks”, received over three hundred thousand views in two weeks. After the video’s success, Chandar decided to invest in his channel and convinced his partners Krishnan, Ajith Togo, Subbiramanian and Suresh to join the venture. Late in October 2015, another YouTube channel called ChuChuTV Surprise was launched to cater to kids who are 4-6 years old, which has since received an encouraging response globally with over 2 billion views and 4 million subscribers at present.[6][7] One third of ChuChu TV’s views come from the United States and India. ChuChu TV has about 200 employees.
